AN INTERESTING LE TTER FROM A VETERAN.

TO THK IDITOB. FIB,— There is a rather important oi?or In the artfole which appeared m Saturday's * l Guardiin," dealing with the half -holiday question. Tho buainoßs firms which met the depn'atlon from the flail-Holiday Association made two offar*«b yon rightly etated. Tcey said tbut they were willing eithec to grant a monthly whole holiday, or to let half their employees leave at 1 p.m. on Wednesday c, the other hilf to remain m the ahops. which would bo open aa usual. The firit oflto— i c , that of a whole holiday — was made on the condition, as l o n said, that 6 p.tn ehould be tho on'ive* Blll boor oC °' otin B on all da y fi except Saturday ; but the alternative proposal w >HS wtthout an V condition what Jeer-not, ac 7011 said, on tho name condition as that of t ho wholo holiday. I may say, too. tbot a further understanding waßa.rivod at, and one that has a considerable bearing oa tho case, ihe gentlemen whom Mr Jenkins and myself met said tbat thoy wcro quite prepared for the Half-Holiday Association to use every means m their power to induce customers not to shop on Wednesday afternoons— l am, Sir, yours ttn'y, EV A. Scott.

As flusis jubilee year it tends to make one •ook back aad think.of the flight of time," and t» this way I am reminded that I am one of the veterans m the sale of your valuable jmd successful medicine. I have sold it m England and many parts of Scotland. Well dol remember the first circular you sent out some nine or ten years ag». Yon had come to England from America to introduce Mother Seigel'e Ourativ* Syrup, and I was struck by a paragraph m which you used these words : — •* Being a stranger m a strange land, I do not «Jsh the people to feel that I want to take the 'cast advantage over them. I feel thai I hflvft a remedy that will cure disease, and I aye so L^uch confidence m it that I authorise _, -pents *o refund the money if people should SISS they' ha»e not benefited by its yse." I felt at once i%* you would never saythat unless the medic.^ k" 1 m " lt T ' * i PP v t for tte agency, a rfcp I now look back pon with pride and $ai.'sfaction. P Ever since that time 1 Mve fouud it by fa the best remedy for Indigestion and DyspejSW I have met with, and I have soJd thousands of lxrttles. It*bas never failed m any case where there were any of the following symptoms :— Nervous or sick headache, sourness of the stomach, rising of the food after eating, a sense of fulness and heaviness, dizziness, bad breath, slime and mucus on the gums and teeth, constipation, and yellowness of the eyes •nd skin, dull and sleepy sensations, ringing m the ears, heartburn, loss of appetite, and, m short, wherever there are signs that the system is doggo?, and the blood is out of order. Upon repeated enquiries, covering a «ett variety of ailments, my customers have Sways answered, " I am better," or "I am perfectly well," What I have seldom or never seen before m the case of any medicine is that people tell each other of its virtues, and those who have been cured say to the coffering: "Go and get Mother Seigels •Carative Syrup, it will make you well." Out ■of the hundreds of cures I will name one or -wo that happen to come into my mind. Two old gentlemen, whose names they -would not like me- to giva you, had been martyrs to Indigestion for many yearsr Tber had tried all kinds of medicine without relief. One of them was so bad he could not t>ear a glass of ale. Both were advised to use (the Syrup and both recovered, and were as lhale and hearty as men m the prime of life. A remarkable case is that of a house painter named Tctleries, who lived at Penshurst, m Kent His business obliged him to expose himseL? a great deal to wind and weather, and lie was seized with rheumatism, and his ioints soon swelled up with dropsy, and were yery stiff *u:d painful. Nothing that the doctors could do seemed to reach thereat ol the trouble. It so crippled him that he could do hardly any work, and lor the whole of the winter of 1878 and he had to give up and take to his bed. He had been afflicted m this sorry way for three years, and was getting worn out and discouraged. Besides, he ha<3 spent over £13 for what he caUfid'' doctor; & » without the least benefit., m the Spnnj lie heard of what Mother Seigel's Curativ, Syrup has done for others and bought a ?s 6c bottle of me. In a few days he sent me wok !>e was much better— before he had nnishei the bottle. He then sent to me for a4s f>( bottle, 2nd as I was going that way I carnec it down to him myself. On getting to hi: house what ¥>*s my astonishment and surpns< to find him feeding an onion bed. I coulc lordly believe rSV own eyes, and said :— "You ought not to be out here, man, it ma] "be the death of you, after having being laid uj all winter with rheumatism and dropsy." His reply Was : " There is no danger. Thi -weather is fine, atfd Mother Seigel's Curativ. Syrup has done for tfe m a few days what tin docton could not do m three years. I thinl I shall get well now." . He kept on with the syrup, and ."i thre weeks he was at work again, and has hau 2 return of the trouble now oearlyten yeara ny medicine that 1 1 this should h Down all over the world .
